附上該廠歷史資料沿革，與早期該廠其他斗型和簡介...分享如下 :

The origin of the brand reaches back to 1858 when Jean-Baptiste Choquin

in collaboration with his son-in-law Gustave Butz created their first pipe in Metz (France).

Since 1951 Butz-Choquin is a brand of the Berrod-Regad group (Saint-Claude, France).

Jean Paul Berrod managed the company from 1969 to 2002 when he retired and sold the

corporate to Mr Fabien Gichon. Denis Blanc, allready owner of EWA,

took over the S.A. Berrod-Regad in 2006.

Origine

   (Right side) St Claude, France, 2

Modern version of the historical model which contributed to the brand's notoriety.

The white extension was formerly (19th century) made of a hollow Albatross bone (Radius).

More recent pipes of this model have a synthetic (acrylic) extension.

Butz Choquin (Arched)

A Metz

A pipe pre-dating 1951 when Berrod-Regad acquired the Butz-Choquin brand.

Prior to 1951 Butz-Choquin pipes were crafted or distributed

by various makers including Berrod-Regad itself.

The shape of the lip and the curve of the mouthpiece

 

both plaid for an original stem and thus an original logo on it.

名牌貨的斗型設計與做工細膩度確實較為嚴謹，翻新打磨時~立馬瞭解。

煙道出風順暢、斗缽握感覺佳，斗壁厚度非常厚較耐熱~對新手很適用。

照相因需打燈光色澤呈現會較淺，原斗經染色後~色澤較為深沉穩重些。

【三千八百元整】適合老手當作日常用斗，新手點火和控溫小心~亦可。
